I understand you wishing that this never happened. That is what I thought when Jesse was gone. For Amy, I would say give her some alone time with you while Jessie is resting. Amy will get over it, that is how my dog Sammy was too. She was very jealous of Jes and then got used to it.

Jessie will not be in as much pain as you think! They give her loads of pain meds, and if I remember right, ours looked and smelt like doggy treats! Jessie will feel much better once her leg is removed though. It will no longer be a burden for her to carry around.

How much information do you have from your veterinarian with this operation, and when is it going to be done? Jesse was gone for five days (but that was because of two other emergencies that had to be done!) She was so out of it that she didn't realize what was going on. I will share more with you later, if you want. Just let me know! Don't worry, after a couple of weeks, you won't really even notice she's a three-legger!

Get better soon Jessie!
